Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I also have a BAD question. Could you please comment on the recent organizational changes. It looks like someone internally is upset with the bottom line not reflecting the growth. Maybe the incentives are to big if they affect the financial statements that significantly. Maybe it's time to throw the shareholders a bone with a dividend increase. Mike

Q: Hi,

As many growth stocks are taking it on the chin, AVO and CSU, for example, why is it that ACQ isn't following suit?

Would you still recommend it at these levels?

Q: hello,
I was hoping for an opinion on MTG vs.TMC. Does TMC's higher yield make it riskier than MTG for a medium term hold?
As usual thank you for all the info.

Q: DCI

Just reported... EBITDA and gross profit seem to be improving and they are reducing debt. Has the turnaround started and would you agree that things are improving slowly but surely? There are a lot of shorts in this stock, if things are improving they will need to cover given the yield!?

Q: Hi Team : a general question on takeovers using PFE as an example. Is it fair to assume the buyer's stock price will weaken while the buyout rises? Assuming the buyer (PFE) has to raise equity/debt and the price of the target keeps rising,PFE share price will likely stagnate/fall during this process?

Q: It's my understanding that the yields on Greek, Spanish and Irish debt are currently trading at very thin spreads to US teasuries. My instinct is that this represents an overall high level of risk complanency in the markets in general and that we are likely due for some weakness ahead as things normalize. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.

Thanks,

Q: Could I get an update on NOV (NovX21, formerly Pro-Or) I've been watching it for some time and it certainly has a good idea and aparently they have proven the technology but I don't see where they are going to get the money from. Is it a high risk buy down at this low price.
Thanks Doug

Q: Hi Team..Can you tell me what the yield is on XFR (the Canadian alternative for FLOT) I do not have a U.S. account which leads me to my second question. Is it still a good idea (with the US $ being so high) to buy some US $ and put FLOT in a US account? I own CDZ and most of your income and growth portfolios but no bonds! Thanks so much for all that you do!
